Driving in the country

1. Watch out for deer and other large and small animals. If you see a deer approaching, slow down and flash your lights repeatedly. Often, the deer will run away. Also, if you see one deer, watch out for others close by--they often travel in pairs or groups.

2. Watch out for pigs, chickens, cows, and skunks, too. (Several visitors have left comments about recent run-ins with these animals.)

3. When driving in the desert, watch out for animals like camels. One visitor from Saudi Arabia wrote in that a relative was severely injured in an impact with a camel.

4. This advice comes from Mexico. If you get an insect like a fly or a bee in your car, don't try to kill it while you're driving! It could take your attention off the road and you could crash. Instead, pull over and park as soon as possible and get the bug out of the car--or ask a passenger to take care of it.
